Unboxing GearVR

A couple of days ago, Samsung GearVR glasses came to me. It was impossible to buy directly to Russia, so I ordered it through an American address. As you know, GearVR work only with the Galaxy Note 4 phone, and currently out of the box only with the version on the Qualcomm processor.



Everything is packed in a beautiful white box.

Inside we are waiting for a quality cover made with the inscription GearVR, with a carrying handle.


Well, actually the glasses themselves.


Included is a 16 gb flash drive with content, a lens cleaning cloth, a removable foam pad and a manual.


Goggles with a protective cover that serves purely decorative purposes.




Since in Russia Galaxy Note 4 is sold only on the Exynos processor, I had to dance a little with a tambourine to launch the Oculus Home application on my phone. As a result, everything works just with a bang, there are no lags, the picture is just fantastic (better than in DK2)

The photos look just great, the video is a bit worse because of the limitations of file resolution, which the phone can lose, but again better than on DK2.

Toys are quite simple, but fascinating.

Most importantly, the glasses with the phone do not strain at all, and even after half an hour of use you do not feel like taking them off. Impressions are the most positive.

A couple of flaws that are found at the moment:
- there is no possibility of recharging the phone at the same time with use (I had to buy an additional battery, which is installed instead of the back cover)
- overheating of the phone in some games with fancy graphics (you have to pause and allow the phone to cool down)
